"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone." Wang Yan'er only wanted to make a fortune in silence when she got the water of life. It would be bad to spread the word and attract competition.
Mu Qianyu thanked her and resigned, but her face darkened after she left the door. She didn't expect that she would have to fight to be a servant, and she had no experience in this area, so she almost got plotted against her.
She shook her head. Although she was dissatisfied, she had no intention of doing anything to take revenge. Even though she recognized the reality of a fight, she still didn't bother to argue with a boy.
After dealing with Madam Seventeen, she continued to go back to her room to read, but Baxi came in the evening and knocked on the door to inform Mu Qianyu to prepare and follow the hall master out tomorrow.
"I know." Mu Qianyu replied calmly while lying on his bed, without getting up or asking where he was going.
Anyone who knows her will know that once she starts to be cold towards someone, it means she already has considerable opinions about that person.
"You're such a naughty kid. You don't even know how to stand up and talk when you see me." Baxi walked in dissatisfied.
Mu Qianyu raised his eyelids and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"You are relying on the hall master's favor and not taking me seriously, right?" Baxi then put a big hat on her.
"Yes." Mu Qianyu answered simply.
Baxi didn't expect that a newcomer would dare to speak like this. He was so crowded that he was speechless for a long time and didn't know what to say.
"Is my room a maze? Did you get lost when you came in?" Mu Qianyu raised his chin towards the door: "The door is there, if you have nothing to do, go out."
Baxi's face showed a ruthless look: "Okay, okay, if you have the guts, wait for me."
He weighed the situation and realized that this was not the time to take action. He turned around and walked out with harsh words, slamming the door open.
Mu Qianyu didn't even give him an expression, he just did what he should do.
Early the next morning, she changed her clothes and waited in front of Madam Seventeen's room. Also waiting was Baxi, the master of Baihu Hall was still inside and hadn't gotten up yet.
Mu Qianyu looked at the dim light of the morning and felt that he hadn't gotten up so early in a long time. No wonder no one wanted to be an undercover agent. Just getting up early was a hard job.
Baxi looked at Mu Qianyu with a very sinister expression all morning. Unexpectedly, he thought he saw the enemy who killed his father. Mu Qianyu felt that with this situation, he might be able to only be a servant for the rest of his life.
"Good morning, brothers." Liu'er walked out of the small kitchen, holding a plate of pastries in his hand and saluting.
When Baxi saw Liu'er, she immediately greeted her with a smile: "Miss Liu'er is so considerate. She knew that I hadn't eaten anything in the morning, so she brought me food specially."
Mu Qianyu didn't interrupt, but smiled and nodded at Liu'er.
"You misunderstood, this is what Madam has promised to give to Brother Dahai." Liu'er nodded at Baixi, turned around and sent the pastry to Mu Qianyu with a smile: "Madam loves this sweet-scented osmanthus cake the most, but I don't know that Dahai
Brother, do you like it?"
Baxi's face was filled with surprise and uncertainty. Yesterday, he clearly revealed that Liu Dahai helped the hall master get the oiran's wife. Why didn't the lady get angry and instead gave her something to eat?
Was it poisoned?
The more he thought about it, the more likely it was that the Seventeenth Madam was the most favored and the most petty, so she would definitely want to settle the score with Liu Dahai.
So he waited to see the good show.
Mu Qianyu smiled and thanked her, then picked it up and started eating. She happened to have nothing to eat, so she didn't even look like she was eating at all.
"It's delicious." She nodded: "Thank you madam for me."
"Madam said you don't have to be polite to her." Liu'er said as he took out a handkerchief to wipe the pastry crumbs from the corners of Mu Qianyu's mouth.
The more Baxi looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong. Did he get such good treatment before he died?
This little Liu'er can be regarded as the most beautiful girl on the entire main peak. No matter how many outer disciples and servants pursued her, she didn't even see her pretending to anyone. Today she actually took the initiative to wipe a man's mouth.
Isn’t the action a bit intimate?
"Thank you, sister." Mu Qianyu coaxed the little girl sweetly.
Soon most of the plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake was finished, and other maids brought hot tea. Mu Qianyu just ate and drank comfortably in front of the courtyard gate.
Although it is midsummer, Baxi's heart is getting colder and colder. The only person on this main peak who can enjoy such treatment from Madam Seventeen is Liu Dahai, apart from the hall master.
He is a new boy, how virtuous and capable he is!
"Thank you sisters, I'm full." Mu Qianyu thanked her.
When Hall Master Baihu came out, he saw several maids leaving with pastries and tea. He immediately smiled and said: "You guys are quite good at eating. My wife has high eyesight. How did you bribe her?"
"It's just some gadgets that women like. Madam's curtain." Mu Qianyu bowed slightly to the master of the White Tiger Hall.
Baxi bowed in the same way.
"No, she has been praising you since last night, and she has been praising you until this morning. It's rare to see someone like her so much." Hall Master Baihu came over and patted her on the shoulder: "You are very good, as long as you follow me well,
This hall master will never treat you badly."
Baxi felt even more unbalanced when he saw the hall master's kind and kind attitude. He had rarely received such favor after following the hall master for so many years.
This guy has only been here for a few days, but he actually coaxed the hall master and his wife into a circle. He is really evil.
If Mu Qianyu knew what he was thinking, he would definitely reply: You can do it if you have the water of life.
Skills are not important, it all depends on gifts. I wonder who is not confused after seeing the water of life.
At this moment, Baxi never imagined that his imaginary enemy would be someone who dared to confront the Holy Lord of the Holy Land. You must know that even the leader of their Ten Thousand Immortals Sect did not have the courage yet.
"Today, my hall master will take you to the Stone Shop. Doesn't it mean that you are very lucky? Today, my hall master allows you to choose two stones." Qinglong Hall Master is still talking to Mu Qianyu.
Mu Qianyu guessed it last night. She said that the water of life was cut from the stone to lead to what happened today.
After all, if you just help the White Tiger Hall Master win an oiran, it will be difficult to get a good respect from now on. The White Tiger Hall Master can tell this without her following these days.
Throwing the water of life that day was just a good stepping stone. If she wanted to be reused, she still needed to exert greater value.
"I'll definitely do my best, but I can't guarantee whether my luck will be good today." She began to feel uncertain in her words. If she acted too confident at this time, she would be exposed.
"That's natural. In the final analysis, stones are all about fate. If you don't choose well, this Hall Master will not be angry." Hall Master Baihu said very kindly.
When Baxi heard this, he concluded that Mu Qianyu was about to die. The master of Baihu Hall was not an easy talker, and he was particularly intolerant of mistakes in stone gambling.
